Yesterday, the nation watched into the late hours as senator after senator joined Connecticut’s Chris Murphy to call upon their colleagues for universal background checks and to prevent suspected terrorists from legally acquiring guns.

I’m asking everyone who reads this to join those senators and take one simple action that could make a huge difference and save many lives: call Senator Toomey today at (202) 224-4254 or (215) 241-1090. Ask him to support STRONG and EFFECTIVE Terror Gap and Background Check bills to keep guns out of the hands of those who should not have them.

Hi, my name is [say your name] and I’m calling to let Senator Toomey know that I want him to support strong and effective background check and terror gap legislation to keep guns out of the hands of those who should not have them.

A lot of phone calls are being made right now, so you may get the office voicemail when you call. Please leave a message for Senator Toomey if you can’t reach a staffer.

Thank you!
